Technical Summary

  The TCP Authentication Option, TCP-AO, relies on security algorithms
  to provide authentication between two end-points.  There are many
  such algorithms available, and two TCP-AO systems cannot interoperate
  unless they are using the same algorithms.  This document specifies
  the algorithms and attributes that can be used in TCP-AO's current
  manual keying mechanism.

Document Quality

  Vendors have expressed support for this work and begun implementing
  it and sharing feedback with TCPM.
